hard act
to follow
Teachers say TV
warps children's
sense of reality
ByAanyMmick
BSssearian staff writer
School teachers are finding what oth-er
media executives, parents and even
movie house operators already know:
Television is a hard act to follow.
In the past, educators have concen-trated
most of their attention on ways
to get television producers to change
the content of programs and commer-cials
to make them more " responsive
tochildren's needs."
But at least one group, containing
Columbia school board member James
R. Oglesby, is looking at television
from a different angle. A task force of
the National School Board Association
is studying how children perceive real-ity
after watching television during
their pre- scho- ol years.
The group wants to find ways to
change children's views to match real
life, which doesn't give answers to hu-man
problems every 30 minutes the
way a sitrcom does. The task force spe-cifically
was posed this question: What
should be taught about critical tele-vision
viewing?
Television is today's babysitter, edu-cators
say. But its influence goes well
beyond that, actually to the point of
forming a special " reality" for young-sters
who spend most of their sitting in
front ofa tube.
The association's task force recently
met in Washington to discuss the ef-fects
of television on students and the
subsequent expectations these students
place on teachers.
Oglesby said there is concern that to-day's
students expect the teacher to be
an entertainer, similar to a television.
" TV has jazzy presentations," Ogles-by
said. " Television sets the frame-work
for what the teacher should be in
the classroom.
" Everything is presented at a rapid
pace on television. This is different
from actual life. It takes perspective
away from things."
Oglesby said if children come in with
certain " preset" ideas developed from
television, they may expect the same
from their teachers. In many cases,
the teacher doesn't measure up to the
child's favorite programming.
But two reseachers say children can
be taught to understand that problems
can't be solved in the same neat way
Bamaby Jones solves a case in less
than GO minutes.
Jerome and Dorothy Singer have re-searched
the effects of television on
children. Singer is professor of psy-chology
at Yale University and co- direc- tor
of the Yale University Family
TV Research and Consultation Center
and Mrs. Singer is a psychology prof es- s- or
at the University of Bridgeport.
" Children ought to learn about the
nature of the TV medium in school,"
Singer said. " The amount of violence
misrepresents daily life."
The couple has developed a curric-ulum
for teachers to use in class, in-cluding
a series of eight lessons that
can be taught to third, fourth, and fifth
grade students.
For example, the 40- minu- te lessons
would teach how programs are broad-cast,
how certain special effects are
produced and bow a television show is
put together. The classes also would
help the students distinguish between
news and fiction and between cartoons
and realism as well as how to identify

days," says S. Woodson Canada, 84,
the University bursar at the time.
The crash's affect on workers was
worse than on stock market investors
in Columbia, because few local resi-dents
invested in corporate stocks in
those days, says Canada, 115 Bingham

meant little to people in the Columbia
area, because many of them were
farmers to whom " stock" had four legs

Nevertheless, says Canada, " We had
a few brokers in town that were pro-moting
certain stocks on a speculative
basis. People were buying at a 10 per-cent
margin without paying enough at-tention
to what the companies' earn-ings
were.
" I ' remember asking a broker what
the earnings of a certain company
were. He told me the most important
thing was not its earnings but what div-idends
would be a year from now.
That's what you call speculation."
If Columbians couldn't understand
the stock market crash, they compre-hend
the term " depression."
" The depression came to farmers in
tiie area 10 years before," says Mrs.
John Sam Williamson, 65, whose farm
is on Route 3. Mrs.' Williamson's father
was a prosperous rancher before
World War I. He sold his 6,000 acres

Others who stayed on farms experi-enced

Korean leader
calls for unity
By Henry Scott Stokes t New York Times
SEOUL, South Korea South Ko-rea's
new leader, acting President
Choi Kyq Hah, Saturday called on his
nation to unite to meet any threat from
North Korea after the " accidental"
killing of President Park Chung Hee
Friday after he ruled for 18 years.
A growing number of analysts here,
both Western and Korean, are finding
it increasingly difficult to accept the
South Korean government's assertion
that the death Friday of President
Park Chung Hee was an accident.
These observers, who include both
Western and Korean specialists famil-iar
with this country's politics and
problems, do not themselves claim in-side
knowledge of what actually hap-pened
Friday night at the small dinner
party at which Park, according to gov-ernment
accounts, was shot and killed
by Kim Jae Kyu, head of the powerful
Korean Central Intelligence Agency.
But citing the circumstantial evi-dence,
they say that the government
account is at best incomplete and at
worst improbable, in part because at
least five other persons were said to
have been killed in the shooting
The six men reported to have been
killed in the incident were Park; his
chief bodyguard and policy adviser,
Cha Ji- Ch- ul; a deputy to Cha, Chong In
Hyong; and his assistant, An Chae
Song; another Park bodyguard, Kim
Yong Sop; and the president's driver,
Kim Yong Tae.
Without directly saying so, the gov-ernment
left the impression that Kim
was responsible for all six deaths,
which strikes other Western, and Asian
observers here as singularly unlikely.
Accordingly, these observers be-lieve,
Park may have been deliberate-ly
murdered, in part because his hard-line
domestic policies, which have
drawn increasing criticism from
Washington, had become troublesome
and embarrassing to the two big orga- -

have disagreed with the KCIA chief
over the treatment of opponents of the
Park regime.
The Western and Asian observers
who doubt the official version believe
that other men besides Kim, the host,
must have fired, if indeed Kim did car-ry
out the assassination.
But in that case, the affair must have
been prepared in advance, and the offi-cial
version that Park's death was an
accident fails. It is hardly credible that
a group of the toughest mark were
wiped out like so many extras in a
cops- and- robb- ers movie, sources here
said, without preparations of any kind.
" We lean to the assassination the-ory,"
said one of the observers.
( In Washington. American officials
said that President Park's death may
have been caused by an assassination
carried out by the Korean Central In-telligence,
but there was no evidence of
any wider plot involving the South Ko-rean
military, i
" All the 37 million people of the Re-public
of Korea are required to unite
and cooperate together and do their ut-most
to defend their country and pro-tect
their own survival," said Choi.
There were no reports of troop
movements in North Korea or border
reinforcements or of forays into South
Korea, but U. S. forces here remain on
a state of alert. There are about 39,000
American servicemen in South Korea,
of whom about three- quarte- rs are
ground combat troops.
